I've watched both the original and this fanedit just a few days ago. And even went as far to rewatch the last half an hour of both. Yet my tired brain likes to make things difficult for me. So this review isn't as detailed as I'd have liked for.

From a technical point of view there is nothing to be said except perfect. The sound and video fit together perfectly and seamlessly.

From a narrative and enjoyment point of view I have to say I actually still prefer the original.
While the original has in my opinion a minor plot hole (ie: for it to work they couldn't have unplugged him) I do prefer having present the scifi aspect of parallel universes and the raising of the philosophical question of an accurate simulation being as valid as reality.
Meanwhile this edit removes those elements in order to focus on the human dignity aspect of the movie and present us with a poignant ending.
While I prefer the original I still enjoyed this one very much. And it's great we can enjoy two versions of the same story.

So you might be wondering then why the 10 stars for the enjoyment aspect if I prefer the original?
Well I happened to watch it with my girlfriend and she said she actually preferred the fanedit. So there you go. Take her vote instead :)
